As an alumna of National-Louis University and a newly graduated Master of Written Communications, my essay Outside the Box will be appearing in this year’s addition of Mosaic, the National-Louis literary journal.

After spending most of my life trying to squish my spherical brain in a cramped, socially acceptable box, now society seems to have come to respect, even seek out, out-of-the-box thinking.

Today I’m going back down to Chicago with my husband to celebrate the publication and release of this year’s Mosaic. I’ll get to see some old classmates and instructors—old as of three or so months ago—and meet some new people interested in the literary arts. I’ll come back with some information about how you might be able to get your very own copy of Mosaic.
